Recently, I feel like there has been a growing amount of reading material that has speaking to me about Grace, as I meditate on it. You know, helping your neighbor, and loving your enemy. I was perusing through Facebook, one morning, and ran into my union’s Facebook page. There are all sorts of people in [...]

Possible snow storm on Thursday!
I’m at home now, getting ready for bed, but I wanted to let everyone know that we may be in for a decent storm if everything comes together. The winds won’t be as bad as the previous storm, but if the storm track bears out we could get a lot of snow. The graphic to [...]

The Jeff Show – Podcast #1 Pre-Christmas!
I’m trying to work on getting myself on working up a podcast. Not sure how regular it will be. I’d like it to be once a week, but it will be less than that, for now. I’ll upload it to my Microblog for hosting, and provide the link on my main blog (here) for the [...]

I’ve been listening to Don Miller‘s, “A Million Miles in a Thousand Years.” Without getting into too much of the book, he realized that life is a story, and that God is asking us to live a better story. In the section that I’m listening to, he is talking about how important scene is. You [...]
Leaving ESPN behind…
I’ll try not and belabor the point, however, I wanted to say some things about ESPN and Penn State. I don’t disagree that Joe Paterno should have done more, he has said that himself. I think that it was time that Joe step down, and the retirement at the end of the season sufficed. However, [...]
Do We Reason Too Much?
As I often do, I listen to podcasts. A decent amount of them are sermons from other churches. Couple that with the “Journey to Bethlehem” that a church north of Harbor Springs did to night, I’m left wondering how do we recover that sense of wonder and sacredness that the church has lost over the [...]
I Hope I’m Wrong
I hope I’m wrong, but I’m getting the feeling that the downfall of the team is about to happen. As much as the school trustees tried to right the ship by firing the president and the football coach. The sports program is now toxic. One sports program that I listen to and the PSU blogs [...]
Sometimes, I Don’t Know…
I feel like I have been down this road a few times. I guess I’m wrestling with God, but He hasn’t put my hip out of joint, yet (I have been listening to Imago Dei Community series called “Wrestling with God”) Or did I just tap out? I’m not sure. I think that I am [...]
